Halula Beach House is like discovering your own colour-splashed tropical sanctuary, where luxury is the only thing that’s taken seriously, and a play all day, chill all evening philosophy is encouraged. Designed with complete comfort in mind, there’s an element of fun infused into every detail of the home; from the names of the bedrooms (that include the Flip Flop and Campervan) to the vibrant array of outdoor bean bags and eclectically cool mix of furnishings.
You may well find you spend most of your time chilling by the pool, which is on a terrace, with a hot tub and a sheltered shack with a large fridge, barbecue, outdoor furniture and heater to cater for all your needs.
There is even a warm outside shower!
Located just minutes from award-winning Fistral beach in Newquay, North coast of Cornwall, days are spent surfing the Atlantic swell or soaking up the sun on Fistral’s golden stretch before heading back to take a dip in the heated swimming pool or bubbling hot tub.
Reminiscent of of a 1950’s Californian beach shack, Halula’s fantastic outdoor space has wetsuit hooks and a warm shower as well as plenty of comfy seating to kick back on, with the quintessential barbecue and drinks fridge rounding off the perfect space for entertaining in.
Inside, the house has been lovingly designed and beautifully equipped to create a relaxing retreat to unwind in, with high quality furnishings complimenting the bold colour schemes, and themed bedrooms inviting long nights of luscious sleep or lazy morning lie ins. Two large flat screen TVs with full Sky package along with wi-fi throughout means even on rainier days, there’s lots to keep adults and children entertained, and for those who prefer a good book there are plenty of sofas to sink into or armchairs to curl up on.
Pool, hot tub and garden
Fling open the French doors to the garden, chill out on the terrace, and curl up in the ‘nook’ with a book or iPad while the kids leap into the pool, heated to 29 degrees.
This is the perfect post-beach retreat, whether you have two legs or four. Bring your pooch and de-sand in the warm outdoor shower and hang up your cossies and wetsuits on the hooks. At night, there’s a kennel under the stars large enough for two labs.
Chill with cocktails in the bubbling hot tub, raid the outdoor fridge, laze around on lilos in the pool, or eat, drink and be merry out here on the rattan chairs, the multi-coloured beanbags, the easy chairs, sunloungers and bench. A kids’ table is perfect for drinking, snacking and playing. Outdoors? It’s the new in.
